Robotic-assisted cholecystectomy has expanded rapidly in the US and is thought to now comprise one-quarter of cholecystectomies.1 Prior work has identified an association between robotic-assisted cholecystectomy and higher rates of bile duct injury (BDI), raising concerns about the safety of the robotic-assisted approach.2,3 However, other analyses have suggested that robotic-assisted and laparoscopic cholecystectomy have similar safety profiles and that robotic-assisted approaches may have...
